Cultural Insight
Michael: Now it's time for a quick cultural insight.
Inger: When it comes to sweets, you should know that Norwegians love licorice, from the sweet kind to the ones that burn in your mouth. You can even find licorice ice cream! However, if this is not your cup of tea, make sure you try melkesjokolade, which is "milk chocolate," a real Norwegian delicacy!
